In Kara Candito's prize-winning debut collection a "garish/human theatre" comes to life against richly textured geographic and psychic landscapes. These poems are high-speed meditations on a world where Walter Benjamin meets the "glitzy chain-link of Chanel scarves" and Puccini'sToscameets the din of the Times Square subway station. Ferociously witty and intensely lyrical,Taste of Cherryspeaks to us in a language that is simultaneously private and public, sensual and cerebral.
